Long Tailed Duck has branched from master and is now available on the
'longtailedduck' branch in the libvpx repository.
Please test with your systems and let us know via the bug tracker[0]
or mailing lists[1] if you encounter any issues. We hope to finalize
this release in January.
What's new?
- General speed improvements to VP9.
- In the highbitdepth (HBD) configuration, encoding and decoding of 8
bit content is no longer appreciably slower than the non-HBD
configuration. This allows deploying a HBD capable library without
impacting existing 8 bit users.
- Fuzzing fixes.
You can get the code with:
$ git clone
https://chromium.googlesource.com/webm/libvpx
$ cd libvpx
$ git checkout longtailedduck
